Sound Annotations
A
sound annotation (PDF 1.2)
is analogous to a text annotation except that in-
stead of a text note, it contains sound recorded from the computer’s microphone
or imported from a file. When the annotation is activated, the sound is played.
The annotation behaves like a text annotation in most ways, with a different icon
(by default, a speaker) to indicate that it represents a sound. Table 8.36 shows the
annotation dictionary entries specific to this type of annotation. Sound objects
are discussed in Section 9.2, “Sounds.”
